last update Last Updated: 2024-03-01 16:18:56
I was asleep in Domenic's arms when the crunching sound and the sun coming throw the window woke me up. I lifted my head from his chest and rubbed my eyes, when I opened them I saw Summer sitting in the chair eating pretzels and scrolling on her phone.

"What are you doing here?" I say but she doesn't lift her head from the phone, then I notice she has headphones in.

I wave my hand in her direction and she lifts her head.

"You're awake, thank God." She says as she takes the headphones out. "How are you feeling?" She whispered as Domenic was still asleep.

"I'm fine, when did you come here?" I look at the time on my phone as Domenic starts stretching in bed.

"A few minutes ago, I didn't see Domenic text until this morning but I rushed over here the second I saw it." I sit up as Domenic opens his eyes and stretches his arms above his head.

"I texted her after you fell asleep, otherwise she would have killed me." He says as he sits up as well. Domenic kisses me and then gets out of be

    "Ahh, finally at home." Summer said as she took off her shoes and jumped on the couch, I did nothing today but all the waiting was exhausting. How long can it take to read one blood work exam? "I can't wait to take a shower. What time is Anthony coming over?" I ask as I join her on the couch and she glances at the watch on her hand. "At six, you have time. Besides we have to wait for Domenic to bring the food, I'm starving." She says as she places her hands over her stomach. "Where is he anyway? How long can that meeting last he's been gone since this morning and hasn't even called to check up on me." God am I becoming toxic or what? I check my phone and still nothing. Stop it, Autumn, you are being paranoid beacuse of all the recent events. "Maybe Dad sent him to do an assignment, brace yourself because it happens often. My dad thinks Domenic is always on call." "I'm so used to him calling or texting that it just feels weird not to hear from him. I'm gonna at least text him and l

    We were all having dinner and talking about Anthony's and Summer's new restaurant, trying to find a suitable name it would carry. "Why don't you just follow my lead and call it "The Restaurant" people might think it's retro." I regretted it the second it left my mouth. "Or not." I say as I pick up the salad with my fork. "I want something that would stand out." Summer said before taking a sip of wine from her glass. "I want it to have the same effect "Sarabia" has, but without having people think I copying my brother." "No one would think you are copying me, if anything you could take it as free advertisement." Domenic added but I saw on Anthony's face he didn't like it. "No offense Domenic, I know you mean well but it is important for me that this restaurant becomes a success without third parties involved." This restaurant is Anthony's dream, he has been planning it ever since I met him. Starting a business is hard I should know, you don't just want to make ends meet but to take

    Friday rolled in and I was coming back to Domenic's apartment with the gift I got for Summer. Actually, I made her one, I had Domenic bring my canvas and paints to his apartment so I could make Summer a painting. But after hearing she never had a dog I went to a dog shelter and picked up a German shepherd pup. Initially, I was thinking of getting her a small dog but the second I saw his big brown eyes I was sold and I know she will be too. I carried it in a dog traveler and I stuck a big red bow on it. When I opened the apartment door I could immediately smell the food Anthony was preparing and could hear him and Domenic chatting in the kitchen."Hey guys, come in here." I say as I pass through the hallway leaving my jacket on the hanger as I enter the living room."What did you do?" Domenic asked me while he pointed at the pup I was carrying."Come on, hear me out she never had a dog so I thought..." He held up his hand in the air so I would stop talking as both of them walked behind

    "What do you mean you can't find Summer?" I ask surprised. "Did you call her?" Stupid question. "That was the first thing I tried when I woke up but her phone was turned off so I went to her room and she was not there." Domenic walks away from me nervously. "Umm, have you tried Anthonys room?" I don't want to imply they slept together but chances are they did and we are here worrying for nothing. "I already checked nobody there and his phone goes to voicemail." He says as he tries calling his phone again. I walk toward him and place my hand on his chest to calm him down. "Let me get dressed and I'll help you look, ok? Sit down and wait for me here." I take the first thing I find in my suitcase and throw it on me before going to the reception with Domenic. "Hello. Hi, we are looking for the two people who came here with us, Summer Davis Jones and Anthony Elston." I show the woman their pictures on my phone as Domenic paces on the spot behind me. "Oh yes, the newlyweds. They are in

    The car pulled up next to a fountain in front of a big mansion. I've only seen houses like this in movies, with a butler and servants waiting by the door as we arrived. Domenic took my hand and guided me in as Summer and Anthony walked behind us. "Mr. Davis, your father is waiting for you in the dining room." The butler said then proceeded to walk in front of us. We walked with our figures intertwined and took glances at each other, as we came closer to what I assumed would be the dining room we heard voices and laughter. Even tho his father was an older man with hair and a beard grey as ash, I could see Domenic's facial features on his father's face. He was dressed formally in a black suit with a white collar and a red scarf wrapped around his neck as he smoked a cigar. But the last person I imagined seeing today was Alice, but she was here drinking wine and talking with Domenic's father. It was obvious he enjoyed her company but his face changed as he saw us come in. Domenic drew

    "You don't need to sell it." Domenic argued with Summer because she wanted to sell the apartment he gave her as a present. "Need I remind you Dad cut me off. I moved in with Anthony so I dont really need that apartment but what I do need is money so I can help Anthony open up the restaurant." Summer was handling this situation better than I could have imagined. She was in love and ready to take on the world with her husband. The sudden cut in her budget didn't scare her, she was determent to make it work. "Your brother is right sweety, you dont have to sell anything, as far as the restaurant is concerned I have everything covered." Anthony said on the other side of the kitchen island as he poured us a glass of wine while we sat and ate. "I want to help, and like I said we dont need that apartment." She said as she fed him a piece of meat from her fork. "Why dont you hold on to the apartment just a little longer, it's always good to have some real estate. Just look at me, it's a go

    "Leo." I said shocked as I looked at his face as his arms rested around my waist. We both looked after the car that was about to hit me but it was already too far to see the plates."Autumn, are you ok? Did you get hurt?" Leo asked as he slowly realized me from his embrace."Yes, I'm fine. Thanks to you Leo, you saved me." After how we left things and the time I hadn't seen him, having him in front of me felt good despite the circumstances. "What is going on Autumn, why is the cafe in this state?" Leo asked as he pointed to the broken windows."Someone vandalized it but I don't want to talk about that." I say as I look at my friend, his ginger hair is longer and his normally shaved face now has a beard forming. "Where have you been Leo, I wanted to talk with you about what happened." His eyes dodge mine for a moment and can feel him hesitate but this time I'm not letting him leave."Why don't we go sit somewhere, have a coffee, and talk? We owe it to all the years we've been friends.

    I returned to our table and slid into the booth as Leo finished his beer, so how do I say to him that Domenic is on his way here? I mean I shouldn't have a problem with it but want to rub salt on a fresh wound, and I don't want Domenic throwing a jealous tantrum either."Good you're back, I need to go now so I paid the tab. Do you want me to drive you somewhere?" Leo said as he gathered his jacket in his arms. "You're leaving already?" It looks like he can't wait to get as far away as possible from me."Yeah, I'm gonna go spend the rest of the day with Mom and my brothers. They came to have a barbecue and to send me off tomorrow." I have a feeling I am not getting an invitation this time."Well Domenic just called me, he told me to wait for him here." Leo nodded his head and then slowly got up and I followed his action. "Why don't you wait with me for a bit?" The look on his face tells me he really doesn't want to. "I don't think that's a good idea." Of course not, what was I thinkin

    Sasha lets him fall into one of our Victorian chairs while Adam and I stand in front of him like parents who are about to scoll their child. But this talk was very necessary, for the sake of our sibling bond and their friendship.I glance at Adam, silently asking him if he’s ready for this. His calm smile reassures me. He’s been patient, waiting for this moment to happen, but I know it’s not easy for him either."Sasha," I start, my voice steady but firm, "we need to have a real talk about all this because Adam isn’t some phase or fling. He’s serious, and I am too. And I need you to accept that. Not just for me, but for us...all of us.""So, let me get this straight," he says, finally breaking the silence, his voice low. "You two have been sneaking around behind my back, hiding this whole thing, and now suddenly I’m supposed to just accept it? What was all that about, huh?"Adam shifts next to me, his hand resting lightly on my back, but I can feel the muscles in his shoulders tense up

    ...That night... "...so now we are not only friends and brothers-in-law but I had the privilege of being his best man. What he and Autumn have is special, anyone can see that, and all I can say is that I wish them both happiness. Also Autumn I'd like to ask your permission to take him out this Friday to play ball." Anthony jokes as he finishes his best man speech. I once heard of a so-called bromance Domenic and Anthony had pretty much ever since they met each other. Summer said she found it endearing. "As long as Summer gave you permission to go." Autumn hits Anthony with a comeback. "But Friday is a no-go, we have a Lamaze class," Autumn says as she touches Domenic's shoulder. "But you are free to join us," She added to which I started connecting the dots. Why Summer looked somewhat green on her face, why she didn't eat and why would she go to a Lamaze class... "That's a great idea." Summer says and Anthony looks at her strangely. "Why would we go to a Lamaze class?" He asks an

    Alex's POV I woke up with a smile on my face as the light of the day shined over my face. Despite the cold, I wrapped myself into a blanket and sat in the corner of my balcony, breathing in the familiar salty ocean air. I used to sit here and watch over the driveway, waiting for Adam's car to drive in, and while everything seemed the same, everything had changed. Now, we were together, dreaming about a future and enjoying the present. A day I once dreaded would never come was now here and the happines set in my chest could be painted in a million colours. I smiled to myself, thinking about how far I’d come. How we had come. With Adam, I had learned to be whole. I closed my eyes, letting the wind brush across my face, and took a deep breath. The salty air mixed with the faint scent of coffee surrounded me too and I suddenly opened my eyes to meet Mrs.Henrdics standing at the balcony door with coffee in hand. "Good morning." She says as she walks over to me and hands me to warm cup.

    "How is Autumn?" Eloise asks us as soon as we walk in leaving her cup of tea on the living room table."She is alright, as is the baby. They are gonna keep her overnight. Domenic stayed behind but I think Richard and Sasha will go home soon." I say as her eyes travel to the spot where Alex and I are holding hands when my mother comes to stand by Eloise. The smile on her face told me everything I needed to know."So... the two of you..." Eloise gestures between Alex and me. "How long has this been going on?" She asks."A while now," Alex says. "And before you start, it was my idea to keep it a secret. I didn't want our families involved before we were sure of where this was going." "I think that was very sensible of you." My mother says as she joins the conversation. "So now that you are sharing the news does it mean it's official?" "But they didn't share the news, they were discovered in a secret. There is a clear distinction." Eloise says.Alex laughs softly at Eloise’s comment, squ

    "How is she? Can I see her?" Domenic asks as he jumps to get to him before everyone else. "Miss Cromwell is fine, she and the baby girl are stable. Her blood pressure went up which caused her to faint. I'm going to recommend bed rest until the baby gets here to avoid any possible complications." The doctor says and one could see and feel the worry melt off of our backs. "Did you talk to her? Did she remember anything? Is that why she had the crisis?" Richard asked as I stepped back and took Alex to my side wrapping my hand around her, keeping her close. Perhaps it wasn't the right moment but being able to hold her in public gave me a sense of power I never had before. "We talked for a brief moment and she described to me what happened, all the excitement of the wedding and the events that happened after took a toll on her, but she remains not remembering the past." We listen as the doctor talks and Alex smiles. We didn't care about the memories so much anymore. Autumn was alright

    "What happened?" Richard yells as he runs to Autumn's side, almost crushing down at the site of her unconscious body in Domenic's hands. "I'm so sorry... I didn't think..." Rachel said as she watched what her words caused. "What did you do?" Richard asks her with fury in his eyes but Rachel only stares at Autumn in shock while Leo does the best he can to hold on to her. "Help is on its way!" Alex yells as she comes back and sticks to my side. Her hands are cold as they slip into mine. I wasn't sure if it was from the cold or from the situation that was in front of us with both Autumn and Sasha. "Dont wait. Get her in the car and drive to the hospital. I'll go with you and make sure they take good care of her." My dad says as he helps Richard stand up and move away from Autumn. Domenic lifts her in the air, and her veil falls down onto the floor. The sight was heartbreaking, this day turned out to be everything but perfect. First Alice, now this. I just hope it doesn't get any wo

    Miguel jumps at Alice, grabbing her hand while the other guy manages to take the gun from her, ultimately pinning her to the ground when Alex pulls me back as the rest of the family gets up and gathers up at the front. “Let go of me, I'm not done yet!” Alice yells as she struggles to free herself but to no use as Miguel ties her hand to her back. “It's over Alice, it's finally over. You won't be able to hurt us ever again.” Domenic says as he presses Autumn to his side while Miguel lifts Alice, her hands pinned at her back. “Take her to the security room and call the police. She won't escape this time, not on my watch.” Richard says while rubbing Autumn's shoulder, trying to make sure she is ok. She look pale, shook but somewhat alright. She held onto Domenic the same way Alex didn't let go of my hand all this time. “He is lying to you, everyone is…” Alice says but Miguel drags her away. She was trying to do damage to the last second she could use. So much haterade in such a s

    I always found weddings to be beautiful, yet this one was special. This was about my friend, someone who I knew would always be in my life, but I somehow knew that from the day I met her. Now sitting here, watching the smile on her face as she stared at the face of her loved one, the man she chose yet again despite every odd, despite not knowing the past. A path she chose solely based on what she felt within herself, and that was love. I had my doubts about it, I had my doubts about Domenic... the things I knew about their past, the things I didn't share with anyone else, not Alex, not Richard... I saw the regret in his eyes, I saw the pain but I also saw the love... and I wish them happiness. The same one I wished for myself and the woman who was sitting next to me right now. My love. My Alex. Today wasn't just the start of a new life for Autumn, this was also the day that meant something big for Alex and me. This was the day we would finally stop hiding.

    "Adam, where the hell were you? We are going to be late and you still haven't changed." Mom yells at me as soon as I step through the door. "I had some business to take care of. Dont worry I'll be ready in time." "Business, on a day like this one." Mom asks, her nad on her hip and eyebrow raised scepticly. "You look great by the way, where is Dad? You should go check he doesn't get something on his suit before we have to leave... I'll go shower now, bye." I manage to ramble up and run upstairs to get ready. Luck had it that Rosie had already got my clothes ready and waiting for me on the bed so I showered, got my hair ready, and got dressed just as a text came for me letting me know Derek was booked and taken care of. One more reason to party. ... "See, there was no reason for all that rushing. I had plenty of time to finish my meal." Dad said as we got out of the car at the Cromwell mention.
